>  #  The K7NV   mast clamp for the  OR-2800  rotor is a real treat, but it 
only works for one diameter.
He  can build them for any diameter you want.   The K7LXC version is for 2  
inch OD only. 
 
    Actually the K7LXC version is also available in 3"  OD. And since we 
use U-bolts, it'll accommodate masts that may be slightly  smaller. A customer 
of mine bought the K7NV for what he thought was a 3" mast  which turned out 
to be 2-7/8" which caused us no end of headaches trying to shim  it and get 
it to hold the mast effectively. My clamp would have  accommodated it with 
no problem. Unfortunately I only had the 2" version at the  time. BTW the 
K7NV clamps are much more expensive than the Champion Radio ones -  33% more 
for the 2 incher and 55% more for the 3" version. 
 
    And he doesn't build them for any diameter since he  has to have enough 
for a production run. He said he couldn't supply the  aforementioned one 
that my customer needed.
